Recently some opponents of an increase in the minimum wage have argued that we are using an inaccurate measure of inflation when we say the 1968 minimum wage would be equal to about $10.00 an hour in today's prices. They argue that if we use the Personal Consumption Expenditures Deflator (PCE) to measure inflation --instead of the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U, modified slightly to reflect current methods back as far as 1968-- we would need a minimum wage of just $8.50 an hour to have the same purchasing power as in 1968. Furthermore, if we take the average value of the minimum wage over the years 1960-1980, the current minimum wage of $7.25 would already be roughly equivalent in purchasing power.
The following newsletter highlights CEPR's latest research, publications, events and much more.
Via Bryce Covert , I see that Senator Rand Paul told a Chamber of Commerce audience recently that being "married with kids versus unmarried with kids is the difference between living in poverty and not" and that the government "should sell that message."
As you might imagine, Paul's claim is widely off base. The table below shows the number of parents (caring for kids under age 18) who live below the poverty line in Paul's state of Kentucky. There are about 70,000 people in Kentucky who are "married with kids", not counting an additional 16,000 people who are also "married with kids" but separated. By comparison, there are about 62,000 never-married parents with kids living in poverty in Kentucky (and some of them are poor despite living with a partner who they will go on to marry). In short, the vast majority of poor parents in Kentucky are either currently married with kids (48%) or have been married (15% are divorced and 2% widowed). Only about one out of every three Kentucky parents living in poverty have never married.
But, a new working paper by University of Delaware economist Saul Hoffman suggests that Sabia, Burkhauser, and Hansen's (SBH) results were an artifact of the relatively small dataset they used to perform their analysis. When Hoffman uses a much larger version of the same data, he finds "no evidence whatsoever of a negative employment impact."
Tonight the bars of DC will fill up with folks watching the President's annual State of the Union address. There are even a bunch of SOTU drinking games to play -- including CEPR's #SOTUBingo! On a serious note, predictions abound about what the President will talk about. Two economic policy issues that may be front and center are inequality and the minimum wage.
In Tuesday's State of the Union address President Obama will likely repeat the call made he made in last year's speech to raise the federal minimum wage. Just in case, here's an FAQ on the minimum wage.
In recent months, the minimum wage has moved to the center of the economic policy debate. Proposals for minimum-wage increases are being introduced at the local, state, and national levels of government. Nationally, President Obama is working alongside Congressional Democrats on a push to raise the federal minimum wage from its current level of $7.25 to $10.10 by 2016.
At the state level, 20 states and the District of Columbia have minimum wages above the federal level, and on January 1, 2014, 13 states raised their minimum wage, with California set to follow suit with an increase to $9 in July. Of these 14 state increases, 9 are automatic adjustments based on indexing the value of the minimum wage to the cost of living, while 4 (NJ, CT, NY, RI) are the product of either ballot-measures or legislative action.
In July, economists Jonathan Meer and Jeremy West made a splash with a new paper arguing that even though the minimum wage doesn't appear to have much effect on the level of employment (a position that should make more traditional critics of the minimum wage feel uncomfortable), a higher minimum wage does lower future growth in employment.
The number of union members rose 162,000 in 2013, reflecting a drop of 118,000 in the public sector that was offset by a rise of 281,000 in the private sector. Expressed as a share of the workforce, the union membership rate was unchanged in 2013, at 11.3 percent.
In 2013, the share of public-sector workers who were in a union decreased by 0.6 percentage points, from 35.9 percent in 2012 to 35.3 percent in 2013. In the private sector, the unionization rate did not change significantly, increasing from 6.6 percent in 2012 to 6.7 percent in 2013.
Isabel Sawhill and Quentin Karpilow of the Center on Children and Families at the Brookings Institution recently proposed what they call a "no-cost" way to reduce poverty and inequality. The proposal combines an increase in the minimum wage with some fairly radical and mostly unwise changes to the Earned Income Tax Credit.
University of Massachusetts economist Arindrajit Dube (on leave this spring at MIT) has an excellent new paper looking at the impact of the minimum wage on the federal poverty rate.
In the past, I have generally relied on analyses along the lines of this recent chart prepared by the Economic Policy Institute's David Cooper to assess the distributional impact of increases in the minimum wage.
Yesterday an important study by Maria Shriver, in partnership with the Center for American Progress, was released nationwide. The Shriver Report: A Woman's Nation Pushes Back From the Brink.
"is a groundbreaking investigation into the millions of women who are doing it all and barely scraping by, struggling to provide and parent in a nation that hasn't kept pace with the modern realities of their lives. It combines research, analysis and ideas from the nation's top academic institutions and think tanks, essays by leading thinkers, stories of real women struggling with our modern economy, and a comprehensive poll."
On Robert Samuelson's latest on poverty, I wanted to add a couple of points to my colleague Dean Baker's excellent piece —which I see was posted at 6 am today, which just shows you have to get up pretty early in the morning to beat Baker to Samuelson.
Two quick reactions to Kevin Drum's mostly critical piece on Marco Rubio's recent poverty plan (or what I've decided to more accurately call his Big-Ass Block Grant plan).
The headline unemployment rate fell sharply to 6.7 percent in December. However, this is not good news. The drop was almost entirely due to people leaving the labor force as the number of people reported employed in December only rose by 143,000, just enough to keep the employment-to-population ratio constant.
Blacks disproportionately left the labor market, with the labor force participation rate for African Americans dropping by 0.3 percentage points to 60.2 percent, the lowest rate since December of 1977. The rate for African American men fell 0.7 percentage points to 65.6 percent, the lowest on record.
The data on the establishment side was not any brighter with the survey reporting an increase of just 74,000 jobs. Some of this weakness was due to unusually slow growth in health care and restaurant employment. This is likely an anomaly that will be reversed in future months. However, there was also a decline in the index of average weekly hours. This suggests that the economy may be weaker than some of the more recent optimistic accounts indicated.
One of the most unheralded examples of Democrats and Republicans working together has been the passage of work-sharing laws at both the national and state levels over the past few years.
Many of those arguing against extending unemployment insurance (UI) benefits claim that by shortening benefit duration we will give people more incentive to find jobs. This view is that we are effectively allowing people to avoid seriously looking for work by providing benefits for an extended period of time. If this were true, then it would be a good argument for not extending benefits.
The extent to which access to benefits is keeping people from finding jobs is actually an extensively researched topic. Insofar as this claim is true, we should expect that workers who are approaching the end of their benefit period end up taking jobs before or just after their benefit period expires. In fact, the research (Rothstein 2012 and Farber and Valletta 2013) finds that the overwhelming majority of people reaching the end of their benefit period simply leave the labor force.
The reason is that UI requires that people look for work in order to continue to receive benefits. After unsuccessfully looking for work for more than a year, many workers undoubtedly decide the effort is futile; therefore they stop looking.
Since a number of states have reduced their period of benefit duration during the downturn, we actually have a quick way of examining the extent to which the job creation story holds water. We can compare the job growth of states that have reduced benefits in the period before the duration was shortened with the period after it was shortened. For comparison, we looked at the rate of job growth for other states in the region that did not change benefit duration over the same period.
Table 1 shows the states where cuts in benefit duration have already gone into effect. While the shortening of benefit duration only applies to new applicants, if it has the effect of increasing incentives to work, it should be felt quickly. Workers who know that they have a shorter period to find employment before losing benefits are not likely to wait until the expiration of the benefit period before seriously looking for work. This means that any incentive effect should be visible in the data long before workers actually hit the end of the period of benefit duration.
Connecticut made history in 2011 as the first state to require employers to provide paid sick leave to all full-time and part-time employees. The law, which took effect on January 1, 2012, applies to around 400,000 Connecticut workers in businesses in service industries with fifty or more employees and allows these employees to earn 5 paid sick days a year.
CEPR on Paid Family Leave Twenty years ago, the Family and Medical Leave Act, or FMLA, was signed into law. The FMLA granted certain workers new and important rights, including the ability to take up to 12 weeks of job-protected leave after a birth or adoption, but it fell short in at least two important respects. CEPR and the Center for American Progress (CAP) released a joint report titled "Job Protection Isn't Enough: Why America Needs Paid Parental Leave" to mark the occasion. It was authored by Heather Boushey and Jane Farrell of CAP and CEPR Senior Economist John Schmitt.

Arab Strap
~ Group
Arab Strap were a Scottish indie rock band whose core members were Aidan Moffat and Malcolm Middleton. The band were signed to independent record label Chemikal Underground, and split in 2006. As indicated by the title of Belle & Sebastian's third record, The Boy with the Arab Strap, and by Aidan Moffat's involvement in the two Reindeer Section albums, they were a central part of Glasgow's influential late 1990s music scene.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Carley!
Facts about Carley
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Gray, Blue Or Silver Tabby
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Carley's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, and good with cats.
Meet sweet Carley, we were called to do a TNR at an abandoned house on a very busy road. There were 2 adult cats and a kitten. When we got to this house to trap we found that this sweet cat we named Carley was the victim of a throw-a-way cat. Dropped off to survive on her own with a feral cat and kitten.
Carley was so grateful to be rescued, we found she was already spayed and in fact had been someone's house pet as she adapted quickly to the creature comforts of being inside safe and loved.
Carley is sweet as they come, she is shy around lots of cats, she was probably an only cat most of her life. But she is not aggressive in any way towards other cats or people. She loves to be stroked and brushed, she loves to roll in catnip and you can actually see a smile on her face at the time.
Please consider giving this wonderful girl a forever home where she can relax and enjoy kittypet life with a loving family.
You can visit me 7 days a week at PetSmart in Bethlehem / Winder, Georgia. We are over in the cat section of the store, just look for me in my pretty hammack.
We rotate our cats/kittens in and out of PetSmart to give them a break and allow them freedom to run around our shelter. If you are interested in a certain cat please call Jill before your visit to PetSmart and tell her which cat/kitten you are interested in so she can make sure the cat/kitten is there for you to visit.
You can also call Altered Feral State if you want more information on me, just ask for
Jill (770) 876-0659
And of course all the nice people at PetSmart will be glad to help you adopt me here at the store. At Altered Feral State, we work with feral cat colonies.
All of our kittens were removed from the colonies and completely socialized when they are less than 8 weeks old. We don't offer them for adoption until they have been tested, vaccinated and spayed or neutered. Our adoption fee of $100 only covers a very small portion of our costs, but to us, it's all about finding the best home for these wonderful kitties.
Please make an appointment with your personal Veterinarian for a well cat check up, your Veterinarian may recommend additional vaccines depending on the cats/kittens age. These costs are your responsibility.
Other Pets at Altered Feral State, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Carley, a Monroe Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Monroe, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Monroe.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Monroe already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Monroe breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Monroe paves the way for another one to be saved.

Hi fellow brewers! I'll be bottling my first batch of wine in a couple weeks and wanted to get some thoughts on using corks from previous bottles of wine that I've drank. I have a bunch of used corks and would like to repurpose them but the folks at my local brewer shop are saying no. Are they just trying to sell me some new corks or is this not a good practice? Thanks in advance for the thoughts!
Listen to the folks at your local brew shop. I imagine re-using corks is possible, but I would never risk my wine to save on a 25 cent cork. Glass can be cleaned and sterilized easily, so reusing wine bottles is fine. Re-using corks is not. They are porous and have a million nooks and cranies that can harbor bacteria, so cleaning them is nearly impossible. Also, they've already been compressed for months, if not years, in the first bottle of wine. They may not fit as tightly in the second bottle.
and they have a hole in them from the corkscrew that took them out of the first bottle. Don't do it.
The yeast knows what it's doing.
Repurposing corks for long term use in wine is a recipe for disaster. You have spent so much time and effort on your wine take the time to use proper corks. You will appreciate it years from now.
Motto: quel che sara sara
does that work on #9 corks? It looks like this is more of a in a pinch situation, what happens if you hit the bottle too hard and it breaks??? not practical, do not reuse corks, they are pretty cheap why would you
I really appreciate all the thoughts you guys. They helped me wrap my head around the idea. I'll definitely use new corks!

I went to the conservatory yesterday to see their blooming titan arum, and lo and behold, the gift shop had a Sansevieria hallii plant. So, of course, I bought it. I don't really know the best way to take care of this plant. The picture shows it in the bag coming home from the conservatory. It is still in its original pot with its original soil. I gave it a drink because the soil was completely dry, and I have put it on a table near a south-facing window with the light filtered out by some other plants. Is there anything I should do differently from regular old S. trifasciata in caring for this species? It is so unique and I would hate to kill it! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Oh, completely off-topic, BUT... here's a pic of the titan arum (the world's tallest flower). The bloom was much taller than I am, although it was already starting to decay after 24h. It also stank to high heaven. |
Thank you for the picture. I guess I would treat it just like the rest. I am no expert. See who else replies. |
Oh hey Stush, you live near me. This hallii has at least 3 offshoots and looks pretty root-bound... Not sure of the best season to split the plant, but when I get brave, If you'd like one, I'll give you one! |
- Posted by solar_storm 24 CA (My Page) on Thu, Aug 22, 13 at 18:17
If I were to guess, I'd call it a S hallii 'Lundi". All the standard hallii's I've seen have a "D" cross section, never deeply grooved. Here's my S hallii. As for care, treat it like most sans in that it will appreciate fresh soil, warmth, bright indirect light, and humidity, but not wet feet. |

Very nice find!! I find mine to be a slow grower but one I like! |

Ok every one! Now I am jealous! What great luck all are having! Nice looking sans. Karen |
Thanks for showing us the arum flower. It looks like an alien! Worth the trip to see it, plus you found your sans too. Barb |
kataclysm, We may bump into each other fighting over the clearance rack at Lowes'. Ha ha. Just kidding. Thank you for you offer but I have much more than I can handle right now. I would separate them come spring after the winter killing season is over. You can give mine to Enterotoxigenic if you wish. I live near the old Pittsburgh Airport in south-west Pitt. Stush |
LOL! I'm in Wilkinsburg, so unless you like the Lowes at the Waterfront, we'll probably keep out of each others' paths. Just stay away from the K-Mart in Edgewood! (J/k) |
Kat, your hallii looks like it is dehydrated. As for care: mine is outside all year exposed in summer and winter. In the summer we have down pours of rain and this guy takes it. In winter we have very little rain and I seldom supplement. Basically it is very forgiving. Of course you will have to adjust your care to your climate but it should do OK for you. |
I think Hallii is probably more prone to rot than the standard trifasciata (which as everyone knows is very forgiving as a houseplant), and Hallii should be treated more like a succulent. Mine had a huge underground tuber and I had to put it in a big pot (to get it deep enough to stand up), but it rotted. Make sure it gets some decent sun, and draining soil. Sitting in damp soil inside the house = bad. |
Thanks for the tips, laura and noki! It's in a pretty well-draining mix right now and I've basically been waiting for it to get pretty dry, then drenching it. I anticipate needing to err on the side of dryness for the winter months. It's been a lot happier in its spot than I expected and I'm actually a bit concerned about what to do with it. Over the past week or so, I noticed the (plastic) pot getting deformed-looking. Then, today when I checked on the plants, I noticed that the entire pot was balanced on one corner -- pups have suddenly sprouted out of the bottom of the pot! (Apparently it likes my watering schedule?) Is it too late in the year to divide this plant? I am unsure of the best course of action... |
kataclysm, Normally, I would say no, but if you got a warm spot for it this winter, go for it. I like to use Root-tone on the cuts. Can't hurt. Don't forget to let the cuts heal before planting. Stush |
- Posted by norma_2006 10 (My Page) on Mon, Sep 23, 13 at 7:34
The same as you do any other San. or succulent, is it is a rooted plant. give a gentle tug on the leaf and it will let you know if it has roots.I must quit now, my hand is getting tired. The right hand is damaged. Norma |
Split the plant last week, got 3 small plants and a mama plant. Mama could probably have been split into 2 again herself, but I didn't want to risk killing both halves because of how very tangled the root system was. I let the cuts callus over before replanting, and potted everyone up in a well-draining mix. The one on the left is the one that came out the bottom of the pot. The one on the right already had such a big root system, I couldn't fit it into any of the pots I had on hand, so I improvised :) I actually really like how the clear plastic shows the moisture level and root system of the plant... Maybe I'll look into getting a glass drill and turning vases into planters for some of my other plants! |
Here's Mama Plant back in her spot near the window... The leaf edges always look brown on this plant. When I bought it, the plant was completely dried out and in severely compacted soil, and apparently the browned edges/tips are permanent. Good thing I like my plants with a bit of 'character'.... ;) |

text: The The Morningstar Option, Part 3 wiki last edited by Billy Batson on 06/27/13 04:19AM View full history Lucifer and Rachel reach Tsoodzil, finding to both of their surprise (and Lucifer's chagrin) that Rachel is to be their spirit guide through the four worlds. Their strange spiritual pilgrimage takes them to the pitch black First World where the voiceless gods have woven their wish granting velleity out of their own shapeless bodies. The finale demonstrates Lucifer's brilliant cunning and deceit as he uses Rachel to destroy the velleity before she has a chance to wish her brother back to life.

Let's take the bread and share it
By Martina Liebsch, Caritas Internationalis Policy and Advocacy Director I start with a loaf of bread: Our daily bread. We need to share it and more importantly provide people the seeds, knowledge and resources to grow it in an often hostile environment. At Mass following the opening day of the Future without Hunger Congress in Vienna, we were reminded by Cardinal Oscar Rodriguez that we should be bringing light to people. This light might be still small but if enough people share it, it will become bright.

We are at the beginning stages of planning to build a home in Northern Rural-ish Maryland and we have decided to move forward with this plan. It seems to be popular since it's on the front page of every web site I've gone to. Although, I've never seen it actually built. Has anyone built this floor plan? Seen this house? See obvious flaws that I can't see? Also, we got a BASIC cost estimate through the website for construction costs, which if you're interested came out to about $400k for best materials used. This included grading, utilities, septic, etc. Has anyone also does this? How close of an estimate was this? We definitely wouldn't use high-end/best for every single thing, but I found this a bit much for a 2,600 sq ft house (the basement would be walk out unfinished and the loft area would be finished later). I know I need to get many bids and just see but I was just looking for a heads up to see if we should press on elsewhere or if I can let myself fall in love with this plan. We were hoping for something in the $300-$350k range. Any thoughts on this is greatly appreciated. |

We've critiqued this plan before, let me see if I can find it for you...(it really wasn't popular with us GWers). I can't find the other post... Hopefully the person who posted it for comment will link it to this one. The cost estimate may be low, frankly. The round breakfast nook and the angles add to the cost quite a bit. |
This post was edited by kirkhall on Mon, Feb 11, 13 at 12:33
Perhaps some one that lives nearby can speak to the cost more accurately, but $400,000 in MD doesn't surprise me for this plan. It's filled with corners and curves. Even here in the relatively inexpensive midwest, one would be pushing it to build this for less than $400,000. Does that cost include the land or is the land separate? I've found this calculator more accurate in the past. |

My memory of the criticisms: not enough usable space in the lodge room, because you need to allow for walkways on two sides. The breakfast area is cramped, because of the round shape and the doorways. Much of the kitchen counters aren't in a usable place, and so you end up with a large expensive kitchen that functions like small, cramped one. The most direct path from the garage to the kids' bedrooms goes through the kitchen hot zone. The keeping room and the lodge room are acoustically connected, so there's not much value in having both of them-- one will not be a quiet refuge from the other. I'm sure someone else will chime in to correct me or add on! |

Lawyers: Use the Peer Endorsements section to provide input about other attorneys.
Kathy had good reviews 5 years ago. In the past 2 years, I've read other clients' reviews with similar experiences to mine. I hired her 2 years ago and she took me, like others for over $25,000.00 and not only achieved nothing for me...but made errors in legal judgment that should have been known from the beginning. She settled with the other side "frivolous lawsuit" and showed zero integrity to repay me my wasted 2 years and huge monetary loss. I domesticated a case from FL and she failed to research the differences in the law and pursued a case that could NOT BE DOMESTICATED . Her mistakes cost me 6 months of alimony, over $36,000. and $25,000. fees plus a difficult emotional toil. Don't just walk away from Kathy L Portnoy....RUN AWAY!!!! She lets young associates do ALL the work and does not review what they do or spends so little time on your case that very damaging results occur.
Kathy and her team at CPS Law are absolutely one of the best. Kathy is very methodical, and really knows her stuff. She does not come cheap, but if you want the best reults and advice it is well worth it. She has professional integrity, and is well known and liked, and respected in the inner circles with Family law. She gets the job done, and in a unique profesional manner.
Kathy Portnoy from the start was trustworthy and thorough. Her competence was excellent as was her knowledge of the law and what was best for my children. Her advice was based on years of experience, not in anger or retaliation and this has made the lives of my children, my own and my ex-spouse's a far more quality experience. I have not one regret at having chosen Kathy Portnoy to represent me and highly recommend her.
Having interviewed many attorneys I chose Kathy Portnoy. She is brilliant, compassionate and dedicated to ensure that the best outcome possible could be attained with the least hassle. Her character was most apparent when she advised me not to "win" the case but to settle because it would be in the best interest of my children. At the time I couldn't understand but she assured me what would be best... and she was right without any doubt. My current situation is the best it can be for my children (half-time custody) and a relatively amicable settlement with my ex. My children are learning for themselves about both their parents and are growing well. Life is too short to foster bitterness and to cause anguish to children. Kathy's reputation was very apparent among the judges and her colleagues. She's very tough when she has to be but also very considerate and personable. I always felt that I had confidence in her and highly recommend her (and her able staff) to anyone in need of solid and ethical representation.

I think these photos are precious yet I have to agree with Heidi's comment above it's all I can think of looking at them. Better of letting them run around naked than wear diapers if you can't be bothered putting on swimming diapers.
Haven't they heard of swimming diapers? That's just plain cruel letting a baby walk around with a wet heavy nappy to their knees!! Not good enough!

I have tried using a hidden scroll bar for comments,but for some reason when I did my about me and wishlist the page stretches and a scroll bar appears. I have tried to play around with the numbers,but I just want the exact#.
edit: Take a look at my profile. I did the code for hidden scroll bar for my comments,wishlist and about me. My about me and wishlist I still see a blue scroll bar. Am I doing something wrong or it just doesn't work for Google Chrome?
edit: Take a look at my profile. I did the code for hidden scroll bar for my comments,wishlist and about me. My about me and wishlist I still see a blue scroll bar. Am I doing something wrong or it just doesn't work for Google Chrome?
Making a hidden scrollbar for wishlists doesn't seem to work the same way as the rest, because of how hidden scrollbars actually work. They use an outside element and an inside element, which the comments panel has and for the about panel you can create, but wishlists don't have an inner element, only an outer one. If it doesn't have both, it won't work.
For about panels, it starts getting more confusing because you have to actually create an inner element for the panel using BBCode. You have to add a list tag around your entire about content, and then style that list as if it were the inner element for the scrollbar code, and if you didn't do this entirely and exactly, it won't work.
The BBCode needed:
[list=1]your about me content here[/list]
The CSS needed (not using the guide's code, if you notice, since the guide is done terribly. This code is miles better and much easier to work with. Most of the time all you will need to change are the selectors and the height and it'll work on any panel that the guide's ones do):
#id_about ol{
If the panel is too short or too tall, change 300px to higher or lower numbers.overflow:hidden;
#id_about ol{
And I see that you still want colored scrollbars, so since Knight Yoshi won't give it to you, I will. As he said, it's impossible to make a custom scrollbar that works for everyone, since the two options that do exist (at this point) only work on Google Chrome+Safari, or Internet Explorer, and like he said, it's usually advised against to use anything that is that limited in crossbrowser compatibility.
Since you still want it despite that, you can use this code, which is the code for the Chrome+Safari scrollbars (I don't know how to do the IE ones, even if you wanted them, and I don't plan on learning). I'm actually gonna kinda put this in multiple sections because this can get confusing.
Just use this for the size of your scrollbar. As long as you keep both the width and height the same number, you can adjust how big you want your scrollbar by changing the numbers– higher numbers are thicker, lower numbers are thinner. Test it out to see what you like.width:5px;
This is the track of the scrollbar, which on most computers is white or gray and you usually don't click on it. I've set it to white, but you can change it to other colors or add an image by changing #ffffff to another hex code or color name for a color, or to url(your url) for an image.background:#ffffff;
This is the handle of the scrollbar, which on most computers is blue or gray and is the part you click and drag to scroll. I set it to a darkish gray, but you can change it to another color or an image the same way as with the track. background:#666666;

Source: Inside Reference Data | 25 Mar 2012
Categories: Data Management
Topics: dataEditor's Letter
Reference data managers may see centralized data as a road to efficiency, but shouldn't forget about accuracy and risk management in the process
A vital element of dealing with reference data is in danger of getting lost amid the most recent round of attention being paid to the legal entity identifier (LEI). That element is efficiency, an executive of a data integration provider told me recently, relating remarks made to him by a prominent Wall Street chief data officer.
Efficiency can mean a lot of things, however. Connecting separate silos of data can be part of that, spurred by new regulations and new standards agencies. In a chief data officer's mind, efficiency means better leveraging data and technology, and getting support from service providers to do so. Firms shouldn't have multiple data quality programs that all perform the same function.
Centralization of data can be a road to that efficiency. In January, Inside Reference Data reported how cloud computing advances have enhanced the ability to centralize data for analytics. To centralize data management, efficiency is inherently required because, as that data integration firm's executive points out, automation, exception handling and responses to errors are all now more important to centralization than just staffing and processes. These functions are all steps to achieve efficiency.
Getting firms to see data management as something other than just a support function is necessary, because data management experts are needed to understand and analyze centralized data. That requires spending on something other than revenue-producing functions for a firm—and being able to mitigate or prevent the risk from a corporate action failing at a cost of millions of dollars really should be considered a revenue stream.
Although some staffing expertise is needed to support centralized data, and the inherent efficiency that can produce, the data management functions that also fuel that efficiency shouldn't blind data managers to the value that can come from accurate, risk-reducing data operations.

Is It Primal? – Popcorn, Corn Tortillas, Rye, and Other Foods Scrutinized
Posted By Mark Sisson On February 12, 2013 @ 8:00 am In Is It Primal? | 137 Comments
Every so often, people ask about foods that are clearly not Primal. While the more diehard among you might expect me to ignore and lambast these fine folks, I think this is the wrong tactic. We can't have any sacred cows (except, perhaps, grass-fed ones) in this business; we must always be willing to examine our beliefs and explore "forbidden" foods. If some of them turn out to be not so bad – or even beneficial – we end up with even more choices. And that's generally a good thing to have. Plus, even though most of the questionable foods may not end up getting "Primal approval," at least we'll be more informed and better prepared to make good choices when we decide to "stray" or cheat. Because cheating is going to happen. Because the 80/20 rule [7] is a good rule to follow. Why not know what we're getting into? Why not lean toward harm reduction, even as we eat something that isn't exactly Primal?
That's ultimately what this ongoing series is all about.
It's an American tradition, isn't it? You fork over thirty bucks for a pair of movie tickets, trundle into the theater, and head directly to the concession stand for a gallon of Icee, some nachos, a box of Junior Mints, and a large buttered popcorn (with free refills). For many people, moviegoing just isn't the same without the feed. As Primal Blueprinters [8], I'm sure you can handle yourselves at the cinema. The Icees, the nachos, the candies don't really interest or tempt you – you've snuck in a BPA [9]-free container of roasted lamb leg, after all – but the popcorn calls to you. For one, sometimes they use real butter as a topper. For two, most places still pop it in actual coconut oil [10]. For three, it's salty and, let's face it, delicious.
Popcorn has gotten some press as of late as a great source of polyphenols [11]. Problem is, all those antioxidants [12] are located in the hull of the kernel, that brown, flaky carapace that gets lodged between teeth and embedded in throats. The hull is also made up of insoluble fiber [13], which can add bulk to your stool, but it's not the most digestible nutrient around. If you're not digesting it, are you really getting the popcorn phytonutrients?
Corn has phytic acid, which can chelate certain minerals in the gut and prevent your absorption of them. However, heat treatment of dried corn reduces phytic acid by up to 52% [14]. Since popping corn requires around 450 ºF of heat, you should be reducing at least a fair bit of phytic acid in the process. They do have a low-phytic acid "mutant corn" that could be a better alternative (PDF [15]), but it's mostly reserved for animal feed.
Microwaved popcorn is definitely bad. It's flavored with diacetyl (fake butter flavor), an additive that may exacerbate amyloid plaque progression in Alzheimer's disease [16]. Then there are the microwaveable bags themselves, which impart a healthy dosage of PFOA [17] to the popped corn. PFOA is a synthetic surfactant also used in Teflon products (and microwaveable popcorn bags). It's carcinogenic and, upon introduction into the environment (or our bodies), it persists indefinitely.
Verdict: Not Primal, but it's not the worst cheat snack you can have. If you're buying at a movie theater, make sure they pop it in coconut oil and add real butter [18] (not butter-flavored soy oil). If you're doing it at home, use a good pot with ghee or coconut oil. And stay away from microwaved popcorn at all costs. But roasted lamb [19] is unequivocally better for moviegoing.
I put grains on a spectrum of bad to better, with wheat [20] occupying the former position and rice [21] sitting at the latter spot. Corn's somewhere near the middle, closer to rice than to wheat. It's got zein, a prolamine that bears some similarity to gluten [22], but it's not as reactive as gluten in most people (unless there's a "zein-free" movement sweeping the nation of which I'm unaware). It's not very nutritious, but then again, neither is rice. So, what's the deal?
Corn tortillas are probably the best way to consume corn. By their very definition, corn tortillas are subjected to nixtamalization [23], an ancient form of corn processing that reduces antinutrients like phytic acid, unlocks B-vitamins like niacin, and fights back against mycotoxins. It also increases the available protein content of the corn while increasing the bioavailability of the calcium. In other words, it makes a fairly nutritionally-poor food a bit more nutritious – not all that important for those reading those, who likely have access to a wide range of nutrient-dense foods, but vital for populations who relied on corn for a large portion of their food intake. For us, it makes corn tortillas less problematic.
Even "better" are sprouted corn tortillas, which you'll probably have to go out of your way to purchase. I don't buy them, because I only eat corn tortillas when I'm out and my fancy is struck, and Tito's Taqueria probably isn't going to have sprouted tortillas. When I do tacos at home, I typically just use lettuce wraps or Primal Tex-Mex tortillas [24].
Here's my basic take on the corn tortilla thing: when you're walking off the mezcal [25] sweats on a Puerto Vallarta night and you come upon a vendor serving up lengua and birria and cabeza tacos on corn tortillas, don't ask the dude for a lettuce or cabbage wrap. Don't probe your addled brain for the Spanish pronunciation of "GMO." Just take the tacos, get extra hot sauce and cilantro, and put them in your mouth. Okay, fine – remove the second tortilla layer if you must.
Verdict: Not Primal, but sometimes you just have to do it.
Rye is another grain on the spectrum, just like corn. It's closer to wheat, though, close enough that the two can enjoy illicit relations [26] and produce viable gluteny offspring. Rye contains gluten, albeit a weaker form of it. It's still gluten, though, and celiacs and the gluten-sensitive [22] cannot and should not eat rye. If you're trying to avoid gluten [27] for general health, like I am, you'll also want to avoid rye.
Another reason that many people avoid wheat, their gluten-sensitivity status notwithstanding, is a lectin called wheat germ agglutinin, or WGA. WGA can perforate the stomach lining and interact with insulin receptors, among other interesting effects (which I wrote about here [28]). Sounds like another reason to choose rye over wheat, eh? Well, despite the fact that you don't have to make that decision (hint: you can choose neither), rye (and barley, for that matter) has a lectin that strongly resembles WGA [29] "with respect to [its] chemical, physical, biological and immunological properties." In other words, rye has its own form of WGA that probably acts pretty similar on our bodies and our guts.
Some folks get test results showing that they're "wheat-intolerant" without being intolerant of rye. That's fine. Just be careful if you do decide to stray and snack on rye bread; most rye breads are cut with wheat flour, since making a pure rye loaf apparently takes some culinary knowhow, and the resultant product – being dense and heavy and dark – isn't quite what most people expect from bread. I'd also be leery of considering rye harmless, as I suspect that the real reason people don't seem to complain much about rye is that it's a virtual rarity when compared to the ubiquitousness of wheat. Besides pumpernickel and the odd chance you have a Reuben sandwich, just how often do you come across rye?
Verdict: Not Primal.
Whenever a noxious, overly complex food or condiment that "takes some getting used to" arrives on my plate, I tend to assume that it must contain some incredible health benefit, or else why the heck would anyone ever think to start eating it? Wasabi is no different. Possessing a unique hotness that affects the nasal passageways more than the tongue, wasabi grows naturally in Japan, where it's been used as a medicinal herb [30] for centuries. Nowadays, it's used in Japanese cuisine, particularly with sushi. A dollop of the green grated wasabi root atop a slice of mackerel sashimi with several drops of soy sauce is pretty much close to perfection, I gotta say.
So, I obviously approve of the stuff, but what's so great about it? Since it was a traditional medicinal herb, what are the potential health benefits?
And it's one those things that only a human could learn to love, which is what's so great about it. You could give a dog [34] wasabi twenty times and it would never learn to enjoy it. What is it about humans that we're able to turn culinary misery into hedonistic bliss? Who was the first person to grate some wasabi root over a piece of raw fish [35], pop it into his mouth, and think it was a good idea? I don't know, but I'm glad it happened.
Plus, wasabi is a great way to get a few good laughs at the expense of naive, avocado-loving children. "Oh, that? That's guacamole. Try a spoonful!" It always works.
Verdict: Primal.
I've discussed stevia [36] before and given my full approval. That hasn't changed, but what about Sweetleaf flavored stevia, which includes "natural flavors"? Natural flavors have gotten a bad rap in some circles because they can sometimes refer to MSG, which some folks try to avoid. But the natural flavors that contain MSG are in foods where the umami unctuousness makes sense: your crispy chips, your ranch dressings, your processed salty snacky carby junk. It just doesn't make sense to stick MSG in some lemon-flavored stevia. Unless you're a fan of fish sauce in your lemonade, the two flavors would simply clash.
So I wouldn't worry about natural flavors in Sweetleaf. They'll likely be made up of essential oils, extracts, and other similar compounds [37].
Sweetleaf itself seems to be a legit product. It was founded by James May [38], who fell in love with the herb in 1982 after a Peace Corps volunteer brought some back from South America and let him try it. After 25 years of battling regulation and industry opposition, in 2008 he finally succeeded in getting the FDA to authorize stevia as GRAS – generally recognizable as safe. Before the GRAS decision, you had to buy stevia as a topical lotion or nutritional supplement, but now, it can be sold on store shelves as a healthy sweetener. And healthy it is.
In my previous stevia post (linked above), I showed that not only is stevia harmless as a non-caloric sweetener, it actually possesses significant health benefits. Well, the evidence in favor of stevia keeps coming in. Most recently, Suppversity went over the latest research [39] suggesting the anti-diabetic, pro-anabolic, anti-autoimmune, and anti-obesity effects of stevia. Since Sweetleaf [40] is pure stevia leaf extract with no other sweeteners added for bulk (like erythritol), you're not getting diluted stevia. You get all the bioactive compounds that have the health benefits.
It's a nice story, a good company, and a solid product made by a good man who was instrumental in making stevia widely available in this country (even going up against the likes of Donald Rumsfeld), so I think it's a worthy addition to your sweetener arsenal.
Verdict: Primal.
That's it for today, folks. If you've got any more foods you want scrutinized, please, send them along and I'll do my best to address them. Thanks for reading!

I wanted to wait a few weeks before i wrote my "review" on this - i go thru so many different brands - love it for a day or two and then looking for the next HG. Have bought and discarded so many times: cle de Peu, CD, mac, becca, laura mercier ... the list goes on. So far am LOVING this product. I don't have to use more than one kind/color to cover my purple circles. It goes on so easy and i pat it on and whala - i am good to go practically the entire day. matte - no creases and amazing coverage. By about 4 i do touch it up... but i really love this product.

This stuff is pretty fantastic. I have been experiencing breakouts along my jawline, characterized by nice, big, red bumps! This concealer covers them completely. It looks natural (I don't wear any other makeup, no foundation) and lasts all day. When you first apply it, it looks sort of strange - I am using the medium shade at the SA's suggestion even though I would have assumed I was a light. So, at first it appears too yellowish on my skin but then I blend it in a little with the brush and it melts perfectly into my skin. Great for dark undereye circles too! It is not cheap but the packaging is sleek and has a good weight to it. It comes in a click-pen style with attached brush, making application simple as pie.

I love this concealer. I have YSL Touche Eclat, and while it is good too, the KANEBO has better coverage and texture. This is one I reach for time and time again. It never lets me down. Lasts and lasts and worth every cent. I'm on my second one and will buy another. Got mine at Barneys NYC.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I had it about a year ago or so... It is good but YSL Touche Eclat, Dior Skinflash and Guerlain's Precious Light Smoothing Illuminator are better. If you like those kind of products I recommend you Guerlain and YSL. I agree that this is more a highlighter than a concealer. I would not buy this one again.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
LOVE IT!! I've tried all concealers and this is the best so far, it covers all my dark circles! It also has an SPF 15!! I recommend every one to by this perfect product..
The only concealer I will use under my eyes and I've tried YSL, Dior, Clinique, Lancome, MAC and heck, even Tesco! CB02 medium is the perfect shade for my NC30 skin; not too different from YSL TE shade 2 I suppose. The coverage is great; not too thick yet enough to hide those hideous dark cicles of mine. It's such a great product, but unfotunately it is available at limited stockists. I had to purchase extras in NYC (where it is more expensive than if you would purchase it in the UK). However, this is not going to deter my loyalty to this product.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
The best concealer in the marked. Much better than YSL and Dior. It's quite pricy, but lasts forever. Will probably not cover scars/pimples as well as dark sircles under the eyes. Very natural looking, and longlasting.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I love this concealer! #2 matches my skin tone exactly, and it doesn't dry out my skin or settle into fine lines. Have repurchased several times.
Edit: After I while, I got tired of the matte finish of this concealer, and switched to Dior Skinflash, which is more luminous. But I will still keep one in my closet for the nice coverage.
This is a wonderful concealer for the dark circles that I have in the inner corners under my eyes. I have tried everything from expensive Cle de Peau to drugstore brands and nothing has worked well. Some products covered fairly well, but they All have caked or settled into the fine lines under my eyes. Not a better result than dark circles in my opinion. The Kanebo is a brush type concealer and I use my finger to apply it and pat it lightly to blend. I use the lightest of the brand and it can look a bit dark or pinky when you click it out of the tube, but it isn't when you use it. It blends in and lasts all day. I can even take a nap and it will still be perfect when I get up. It really is great. Update to say that this is still a great concealer, but is now my second favorite compared to the Armani high precision retouch which I like even better, but there may be times when this one still might be the one that I reach for so I am definitely keeping it around.

The Official PokĂ©mon Elite 2000 Podcast is up and running again – this time under the leadership of our very own Grace (member, Graceful_Suicune) – and it's coming back at full force! Although Mike (member, PE2K Voices) and Grace have already done an intro podcast, Gemma (Gem N Ems) and Caleb (XaiakuX) decided to join the fun for the podcast's official first episode, featuring PokĂ©mon #255, Torchic.
What is the PE2K Podcast? Um, don't you remember the podcasts? The last one was only a year ago. Sheesh. But the point is, the PE2K podcast is basically some kind of chat show designed for your entertainment, brought to you by members of PE2K. The old one was hosted by Charbok, and there was a frequent team which got together on specific days and chatted about pokemon, gaming, and anything else that happened to come up. Each episode was based around a specific pokemon, and the podcasts would launch from there.
There are numerous ways to listen to the podcast, including downloading and subscribing to the podcast via iTunes. For more details, please click here. For highlights and all other things relating to the podcast, they also have a YouTube account. However, this will not be the full episode. Keep checking back each week for more episodes including Grace, Mike, Gemma and Caleb, and perhaps at some point pending members like MYSTERY MEW and yours truly!
Feel free to email or PM them anything you want to ask to do with the podcast. They love to hear feedback from their listeners, and they would love even more to answer them. Send an email to email@example.com if you have any comments, questions and/or criticism.

Last season, Arsenal's match at home to Aston Villa represented the nadir of Arsene Wenger's time at the club. A dispiriting 3-1 defeat on the opening day of the 2013-14 campaign saw fans' frustrations with the manager spill over into open revolt.
